#and I couldn't be bothered to learn how to

[moominvalley-state-of-mind]

THIS!!!

It was a while ago so I don't know if it's the same artist op is talking about but I learned about a painter who painted 'zipper' (as he called them) stripes where you couldn't see ANY brush strokes

And hell, even if you don't like modern art - THATS SO FUCKING COOL

ANYONE WHO HAS EVER PAINTED BEFORE WILL TELL YOU THAT THAT IS LIKE FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE

Evrey time I step into an art museum i think about those paintings, and being the autistic girl I am, I'd like to tell my friends about them.

but all of my friends, for how artsy many of them are, just... hate modern art??

I can't get A WORD out about how interesting some modern art peice is without them being passive aggressive or just dismissing HOW FUCKING COOL A LOT OF IT IS

I could proboly write an essay on how much I hate that modern and abstract (i dont know if thats the right word, sorry :()art is looked down upon or tossed to the side because "i could make that lol" but a part of me dosnt want to bother cause I'll just be begging to a brick wall

I like other types of art, and sometimes at the end of the day it's up to your interpretation of a peice or just how much you like it, but HOLY SHIT GIVE MODERN ART A CHANCE

PLEASE

abstract and modern art haters are sooo snobby like klein literally Created an entirely new pigment and then painted a canvas in a way where the brush strokes wouldn't be visible. the insinuation that people with no skill could reproduce that is so annoying because unless you are skilled at color mixing and painting you definitely couldn’t lmao

The Twins shrugged again.

"What we all learned is that Five sees cryptids everywhere. It doesn't take a genius to figure out who's just some guy."

"But she won't hesitate next time. Five keeps her updated on everybody he pissed off."

Then again, they were assuming Crosshair was still carrying on with her usual tasks now that the team was down three members. There was a very good chance she was going to leave, if she hadn't already.

"You should have seen him that week he couldn't stop punching himself."

"It's good that he barely left his room."

Of course, it was mostly Five avoiding the additional shame their teasing would inevitably cause, but it had been good for their own safety as well as for morale.

"We're not going back. The pay is better and we like ourselves sane."

"And we can make sure Ratchet doesn't lay his filthy hands on anyone else."

The brothers turned once again to Rook, who stared back. The urge to point back to Russell and keep up with the boss thing was strong. She didn't feel like talking to the two who had run her over and had a good laugh about it.

"It was our job to watch you, not his-"

"-Five let Ratchet in while we were busy."

"If that's some attempt to gain points, I don't really care." Rook replied.

"We're not looking for sympathy. We're mercenaries, the least we should do is own up to it-"

"-But we have a sister and the only reason that freak still has his hands attached to the rest of him is that he earned more points with Five than us."

"There's always time to fix that." Erica said, "But he only has two hands while we can beat him indefinitely. We just need some sticks and a place to hang him up."

"I like that idea." Lucien agreed.

"Fine with us. But Frosty's just a kid. His only mistake is not knowing how to pick his battles."

"He thinks he's hot shit. But really, what kinda wimp would die to a bunch of snowballs?"

The way both Rook and Erica were staring at them suggested something about their strategic assessment wasn't appreciated.

"…Well, anyways, Ratchet was building a bunch of stuff for Five. It isn't like he tells us the details, but maybe there was a point to it."

"You guys aren't the only ones he's been bothering. The others were easier to kill, except maybe for that ghost dog he was going on about."

They had no way to make the connection with Leofric and even if they could, Five had picked fights with so many people so far that it didn't really make a difference.

Erica conjured a little shadow ball, much to Smokey's delight. Once the kitten grabbed onto it, she made herself a shadow seat shifting her full attention to the conversation.

The Twins gave a shrug, the exact kind Five got when he asked them that same question.

"Maybe she needed more time to aim. It's harder to shoot somebody inside a car."

"And she didn't really see you come in to know to watch out."

Or they didn't expect Five to get beaten up by Russell, of all people. Either way, it hardly made a difference for the three of them. They weren't in this for the cause and didn't do more than what they were told to.

"Yes, Five has a bit of a gas problem. His hair is also kind of weird, which makes you wonder how 'normal' he really is. We saw blue and white."

"Green and pink too. Oh, and there was that yellow stuff he was messing with way back. He likes to mix them."

They weren't the most qualified to talk about it, but they understood all three effects were toxic in some way. It also occurred to them that Lucien probably got to experience some of it personally, if his visibly tense stance was anything to go by.

"We're definitely going to do something about the others when this is dealt with." Rook reassured, "They also need a reminder of what their place is."

As frustrating as it was to let the matter be, attacking them now might only cause Five to gain more sympathy and useful pawns to send their way and they couldn't risk that.

"We moved places after that time. Different area, same kind of shithole."

"We can show you where it is."

While they really had no issue giving that away, they seemed a little less inclined to talk about Frosty.

"Frosty has been with Five the longest, but he isn't really a big deal. The best he can do is throw an ice cream cone at you. He actually believes in the hunting thing, though."

"A shame, really. He's the only one who wasn't happy to hear Ratchet got left behind. He just isn't cut out for this job."

One of the most beautiful things about being a Christian is the fact that I can take my sorrows, my worries, my pain, my joys, my desires, my hope--all of it!--directly to God. And he cares about it. Even when it's small and personal, and even when it's so big I can't deal with it myself. I can take all of it to him, and I know he will take care of it.

Y'all listen just because you learned something in school doesn't mean everyone else did. idk how y'all got this idea in ur heads that we all learned the same shit when literal book bans are happening in schools across the united states and certain subjects are being banned from ever being talked about. (do not even get me started on the fact different countries have different curriculum too) Like you cannot say "You guys obviously just didn't pay attention in school and are stupid because we all learned this" like you are ignoring like 50 other options as to why people may not have learned this ranging from poorly funded school to disabled kid getting shoved into special ed classes which are often notorious for mistreating their disabled students. I'm begging you all to understand the nuance of why certain skills and abilities aren't as widely spread as you assume they should be.

started reading about the shakespeare authorship thing and the first argument from a literary person to say Willy S couldn't have written them is "he didn't go to university," at which point i went "oh wow i didn't realise THIS was the level of 'evidence' people meant"

LMAO so funny thing is everyone knows the whole Sonic and Shadow looking alike thing is total bullshit and I totally agree those comments they try to pull in the games and show(s? I'm not technically a Sonic fan I dunno if it's multiple) make basically no sense to me but then my Mom comes in while watching Sonic Prime and says "So what, Sonic has a brother or something?" and this whole other world has opened up to me and I've seen the truth of it all
